[He definitely sounds a little hoarse and scratchy still - there's a reason this feed isn't video.]

My apologies for the disturbance on Monday. I hadn't meant to alarm anyone.

[There's a pause as if he's thinking of saying something more, and then it clicks off.]

[A long quiet, and then...]

Are you... all right?

[She sounds quite tentative. Because she is! because she's heard a lot of conflicting information and is now confused, but whatever happened it's bad to be injured.]

[piscestruth]

I am, yes.

[Well. Alive. Time will do the rest, he knows]

[yetsleeping]

I'm glad! Kaien was so afraid. I've never seen him that way.

[piscestruth]

[There's a small chuckle, which ends in a couple of quickly-muffled coughs]

He feels things strongly. I am thankful to know someone who cares that much.

[CINNAMON TEA GUY!]

Hey! It's okay! Don't worry about it! We're used to being alarmed. You're okay!

[...]

Y-you're okay, right?

[voice] Dawn is adorable

[piscestruth]

[A small, rough laugh]

I am, thank you.

/Dawn thinks Ukitake is adorable! XD

[girl_unlocking]

Yay! D-don't say anything cause it's a secret for now, but me and ...uh, Alphonse and I are planning to open a bakeshop. You can totally have free muffins for a month, okay?

If you like muffins.

Also, there might be an onion. Thing. Maybe.

ITT: Adorable derps

[piscestruth]

I do like muffins, yes.

Though...an 'onion thing'...?

[lestrangestone]

[Self satisfied smile]

You are feeling much improved.

[It's not a question. It's only due to her generosity, clearly.]

[piscestruth]

I am. I believe I owe some of that to you, Lestrange-san?

[lestrangestone]

Yes.

[Probably all of it. But you said owe, and that word makes her happy.]

[piscestruth]

My thanks, then.

[infidus]

Really? You certainly seemed intent on alarming me.

[piscestruth]

The apology was not intended for you.

[infidus]

Yes, I gathered that. Though one could suggest that I'm the only one to whom you owe any apology at all, not to mention gratitude for your every remaining breath.

[Does he sound smug? I think yes.]

But no, I don't mind.

[sonvisage]

Might I send you some tea to make your...

[What is the word? Dare she say 'recovery'? Is this awkward? Maybe? Many speculations about things she does not know about. An altercation, yes? And the nice gentleman who showed her the pretty fireworks? She does not know what to think. So she stops. Tea makes it simpler.]

...situation more comfortable?

[private]

[piscestruth]

Tea is never amiss, Miss Silk.

[Private]

[sonvisage]

I will send some right away if you would only tell me what kind you'd prefer.

Are you ...still at the coordinates previously mentioned, or have you been moved elsewhere?

[Private]

[piscestruth]

Some variety of green, I think.

And yes, I am.
